- Are you running as the systemd service?
- “Find” as in it doesn’t know where your folders are or “find” as in you told it where the media is but they’re not showing up? If former, configure your libraries in the UI. If latter, check logs, its probably a permissions issue.
- Can you log in to the webui from the host machine itself? If so but not other devices on the LAN, then there’s a probably a setting somewhere that’s set to
127.0.0.1
that should be0.0.0.0

Liberals make up more of the consumer class than conservatives. That highly marketable strata of people that have disposable income tend to be affluent, college educated liberals. Its why they keep winning the culture war and it drives conservatives insane.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity.

- Comment on Jellyswarrm - reverse proxy all your Jellyfin servers from a single interface, presenting as a standard Jellyfin server, clients should work out of the box. 1 month ago:
Automatic Mapping
If a user already exists on one or more connected servers, they can log in directly with their existing Jellyfin credentials. Jellyswarrm will automatically create a local user and set up the necessary server mappings.
If the same username and password exist on multiple servers, Jellyswarrm will link those accounts together automatically. This provides a smooth experience, giving the user unified access to all linked servers.
Really should audit the implementation of that feature. So when you first log in it automatically sends you’re credentials to every connected server?

I always thought this would make more sense to implement client side in the media player. But its probably easier to implement this way.
- Comment on To install a new outlet with a dedicated circuit do they have to cut the drywall all the way from the electrical panel to the outlet? 1 month ago:
There’s many ways to avoid doing that and the electrician will prefer not to. Generally they prefer to route it laterally through the attic or basement and vertically in the walls. Sometimes, holes are cut in the wall to secure the wire or change its direction.
But if it must move laterally along some drywall and through all of the studs then yeah they’ll need to open up that drywall to drill holes in all the studs.

Not much for open source solutions. A simple captcha however would cost scrapers more to crack than Anubis.
But when it comes to “real” bot management solutions: The least invasive solutions will try to match User-Agent and other headers against the TLS fingerprint and block if they don’t match. More invasive solutions will fingerprint your browser and even your GPU, then either block you or issue you a tracking cookie which is often pinned to your IP and user-agent. Both of those solutions require a large base of data to know what real and fake traffic actually looks like. Only large hosting providers like CloudFlare and Akamai have that data and can provide those sorts of solutions.
- Comment on Codeberg: army of AI crawlers are extremely slowing us; AI crawlers learned how to solve the Anubis challenges. 1 month ago:
Costs of solving PoW for Anubis is absolutely not a factor in any AI companies budget. Just the costs of answering one question is millions of times more expensive than running sha256sum for Anubis.
Just in case you’re being glib and mean the businesses will go under regardless of Anubis: most of these are coming from China. China is absolutely will keep running these companies at a loss for the sake of strategic development.
- Comment on Codeberg: army of AI crawlers are extremely slowing us; AI crawlers learned how to solve the Anubis challenges. 1 month ago:
Places like cloudflare and akamai are already using machine learning algorithms to detect bot traffic at a network level. You need to use similar machine learning to evade them. And since most of these scrapers are for AI companies I’d expect a lot of the scrapers to be LLM generated.

Here’s one example of a proxy provider offering to pay developers to inject their proxies into their apps. (“100% ethical proxies” because they signed a ToS). Another is BrightData proxies traffic through users of their free HolaVPN.
IOT and smart TVs are also obvious suspects.

Or your TV or IOT devices. Residential proxies are extremely shady businesses.

The problem is primarily the resource drain on the server and tarpitting tactics usually increase thag resource burden by maintaining the open connections.

This is what I’ve kept saying about POW being a shit bot management tactic. Its a flat tax across all users, real or fake. The fake users are getting making money to access your site and will just eat the added expense. You can raise the tax to cost more than what your data is worth to them, but that also affects your real users. Nothing about Anubis even attempts to differentiate between bots and real users.
If the bots take the time, they can set up a pipeline to solve Anubis tokens outside of the browser more efficiently than real users.

- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 3 months ago:
Sounds like you don’t need the VPS then. Add a subdomain to your home IP. Port forward 443 and 80 to the sever. Run caddy to route the subdomain to localhost:8096. You will also need to tell jellyfin to accept on the new domain.
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 3 months ago:
5 actually because you can use minimal hardware. You can probably just port forward your router and run caddy on the same jellyfin server but then expose your home IP address.
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 3 months ago:
Obscuring home IP is the big one. You also don’t have to fiddle with opening ports on your router and maybe getting ISP attention for hosting on a residential network. But really obscuring home IP address would work.
Dirt simplest solution is caddy on the same jellyfin server and port forward 443 and 80 on your router to that host. Hopefully letsencrypt will work without a domain but I’m not sure.
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 3 months ago:
But I ran into challenges getting my server safely accessible for users outside my LAN
FWIW:
- vps + domain (optional?)
- connect vps to home server with wireguard (eg Tailscale)
- reverse proxy on the VPS forwarding to jellyfin (eg Caddy)
Obviously not as trivial or seamless as Plex. Also I wouldn’t try to complicate this setup by using docker for everything. But once its up you can basically host whatever you want on the WAN from your LAN.

Every service is doing this as expenses and interest rates go up. Its the driving force of enshittification. All the VCs want internet startups to finally turn a profit.

It was there first and you can share it with friends more easily. For Plex you just register with the central server and share your username with your friends or w/e. Jellyfin has nothing like that.
- Comment on AI bots now beat 100% of those traffic-image CAPTCHAs 1 year ago:
That’s when you rotate the proxy. By default most residential proxies will give you a new proxy for each request unless you specify.
